Panel style and finish
Solid panels give privacy and a clean look. Wooden-finish panels suit warm designs. Full-vision glass lets in light and shows off a modern home.
Space and headroom
A sectional door lifts along tracks, so check the headroom above the opening and the space on each side. A site visit confirms what fits.
Safety and daily use
Look for safety features that stop the door if something is in the way and a manual release for power cuts. Ask how the door will be serviced.
